JEWEL SLAYER POV
"Move a little to the right," I advise. Phoebes throw hits bulls eye which is not surprising considering that I am always right.
Phoebe wipes the sweat off her forehead, "You're going to crush every other tribute this year."
I adjust the golden bow that sits on top of her brown princess curls, a smirk plastered on my perfect face. "And you, Phoebe Young, you are going to win the 36th Hunger Games." I hug my trainee one last time, "You better get going now, wake that stupid brother of yours up."

I turn around slowly, admiring my reaping outfit- a backless dress that is woven from thin strands of gold and has a slit up the skirt. I wear my four inch black heels which are not so high that I will fall on the stairs to the stage but high enough to be sexy. My straight blonde hair is pulled back in a perfect high ponytail and I wear I sapphire necklace that shows off my glistening blue eyes.
My mother comes up behind me, smiling proudly at my reflection. "Oh Jewel, you look absolutely stunning."
The sides of my red lips pull up into a half smirk. "I know."
JULIAN YOUNG POV
Even in the huge crowd that turns up to the reaping, Jewel is easy to spot. Pushing through the mass of people, I wrap my arms around the slim waist of my beautiful girlfriend.
"Hey," I whisper. She turns around in my arms, smiling that same smile I feel in love with so many years ago.
"Hey," she echoes, running a gentle hand down my bicep. A hand on my shoulder tears me apart from Jewel.
"Today's reaping day, not some lovey-dovey reality TV show," the peacekeeper spits, shooting me a dirty look as he marches off to ruin someone else's day.
Jewel sighs, "I guess he's right. I'll see you when it's time to say goodbye." I nod and start to walk off but Jewel is quick to stop me and pull me into one last kiss. I smile into her lips.

"Ladies first!" The crowd visibly straightens in excitement as Justice Fox prances over to the reaping bowl. She took a painful second to pick out a small, folded pice of paper. "Maia Tri-"
"I volunteer as tribute!" A calm voice calls out and I instantly recognized it- Jewel. It's no surprise that she volunteered- she has been the best since she started training age two but I still have to resist the urge to run to her, grab her arms, and stop her from entering the Games.
"Manners young women! Now, as I was saying M-"
"And I said I volunteer."
Justice huffs but gestures that Jewel come to the stage which she doesn't hesitate to do.
"Now, for the men!" My heart hammers in my chest, threatening to burst out. "Jason Ried!" Jason was the one picked out to volunteer for these games, opening up an opportunity...
"I volunteer!"
